Psalms 27

1 A Psalme of David. The Lord is my light and my saluation, whom shall I feare? the Lord is the strength of my life, of whome shall I be afraide?

Yon sòm David SENYÈ a se limyè mwen e sali mwen. Se kilès pou m ta pè? SENYÈ a se defans lavi mwen. Se kilès k ap fè m gen laperèz?

2 When the wicked, euen mine enemies and my foes came vpon mee to eate vp my flesh; they stumbled and fell.

Lè malfektè yo te rive sou mwen pou yo ta devore chè m, advèsè mwen yo ak lènmi m yo te chape tonbe.

3 Though an hoste pitched against me, mine heart should not be afraide: though warre be raised against me, I will trust in this.

Malgre yon lame ta fè kan kont mwen, kè m p ap pè. Malgre lagè leve kont mwen, malgre sa, m ap gen konfyans.

4 One thing haue I desired of the Lord, that I will require, euen that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the dayes of my life, to beholde the beautie of the Lord, and to visite his Temple.

Yon sèl bagay ke m te mande a SENYÈ a; se li mwen va chache: pou m ta kab rete lakay SENYÈ a tout jou lavi m yo, pou m kab gade bèlte SENYÈ a, e reflechi jis nan fon kè m nan tanp Li an.

5 For in the time of trouble hee shall hide mee in his Tabernacle: in the secrete place of his pauillion shall he hide me, and set me vp vpon a rocke.

Paske nan jou twoub la, Li va kache mwen nan tabènak Li. Nan plas sekrè kote tant Li an ye a, se la Li va fè m kache. Li va leve mwen sou yon wòch.

6 And nowe shall hee lift vp mine head aboue mine enemies rounde about mee: therefore wil I offer in his Tabernacle sacrifices of ioy: I wil sing and praise the Lord.

Epi koulye a, tèt mwen va vin leve wo sou lènmi m ki antoure m yo. Konsa, mwen va ofri nan tant Li sakrifis avèk gwo kri lajwa. Mwen va chante, wi, mwen va chante lwanj a SENYÈ a.

7 Hearken vnto my voyce, O Lord, when I crie: haue mercie also vpon mee and heare mee.

Tande, O SENYÈ, lè m kriye avèk vwa m. Fè m gras e reponn mwen.

8 When thou saidest, Seeke ye my face, mine heart answered vnto thee, O Lord, I will seeke thy face.

Lè Ou te di m: “Chache wè figi Mwen”, kè m te di Ou: “Figi Ou menm, O SENYÈ, se li mwen va chache.”

9 Hide not therefore thy face from mee, nor cast thy seruat away in displeasure: thou hast bene my succour: leaue me not, neither forsake mee, O God of my saluation.

Pa kache figi Ou de mwen. Pa detounen sèvitè Ou a pa deyò nan kòlè Ou. Se Ou ki konn sekou mwen. Pa abandone mwen, ni kite m sèl, O Bondye delivrans mwen an.

10 Though my father and my mother shoulde forsake me, yet the Lord will gather me vp.

Paske papa m ak manman m te abandone mwen, Men SENYÈ a va ranmase mwen.

11 Teache mee thy way, O Lord, and leade me in a right path, because of mine enemies.

Enstwi mwen nan chemen Ou, O SENYÈ. Mennen m nan yon wout ki a nivo, akoz lènmi mwen yo.

12 Giue me not vnto the lust of mine aduersaries: for there are false witnesses risen vp against me, and such as speake cruelly.

Pa livre mwen de dezi lènmi mwen yo, paske fo temwen yo vin leve kont mwen, (sila) k ap respire vyolans yo.

13 I should haue fainted, except I had beleeued to see the goodnes of the Lord in the land of the liuing.

Mwen toujou gen konfyans sa a: ke m va wè bonte SENYÈ a nan peyi a vivan yo.

14 Hope in the Lord: be strong, and he shall comfort thine heart, and trust in the Lord.

Tann SENYÈ a. Kenbe fòs Ou e kite kè Ou pran kouraj. Wi, tann SENYÈ a.
